E3 Insider, an official website of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, has put up a listing for Senran Kagura: Bon Appetit under the XSEED Games publisher page.

Earlier this year, Marvelous AQL released a Senran Kagura downloadable rhythm-cooking game spin-off for PS Vita called Dekamori Senran Kagura. This sounds like a localization.

The listing has since been removed, but its description listed it for a winter 2014 release. It read:

Senran Kagura Bon Appétit! is a rhythm spin-off of the ninja brawler series, Senran Kagura. Featuring cooking battles rather than shinobi showdowns, the emphasis is on outrageous humor and delicious food.

Didn’t they say they wouldn’t localize it so soon not too long ago? Well maybe SV preorders went well for them, and I guess we’re not going to complain if it’s true. There’s still lot of time before Winter anyway.

Though I will definitly not buy this game another time. I already almost regret buying it full-price (though since it was digital it would’ve been hard to get it cheaper).

They said they wouldn’t make it a priority over other games in the series. With SV out of the way, there aren’t any other games in the series besides 2, which… Isn’t out yet, I think?

Kayseur

Oh? I thought they had said they weren’t that interested at all, other games being here or not. Well my memory probably fails me, but if that’s so then that explains it yeah.

Where are all the I hate digital download only game posts

I wonder if they’ll release these in the separate packs, if you get them separately there’s 2 platinum trophies but together there’s only 1

Luna Kazemaru

it would be pretty retard to make a post about saying they hate DD only when the game was made DD only.

Taedirk

Doesn’t normally stop them.

DriftSlave

If true, then XSeeD is taking the Gamble like Neptunia is with PP, I’m getting PP and if this is a reality, It’s also considered bought. IF International, NISA, and XSeeD are pushing the Vita. Sony and Bamco are looking into it too with Freedom Wars and Tales of Hearts R, but I hope to see a Localization of God Eater 2 and Tales of Innocence R from Bamco as well.

Ladius

A Namco spokeperson already said Tales of Innocence R could have a chance if Hearts R manages to sell well, so there’s still hope.

You forgot Sword Art Online. <_<

DriftSlave

I don’t care for SAO, that’s why I didn’t mention it.

http://www.gameanyone.com/DukeVerde DukeVerde

Well, lots of other people do… So yeah.

DriftSlave

I’m not going to list games I have no intention in buying, sorry.

Same here sadly.

Nonscpo

Neogaf? Didn’t the Vitalounge.net run this story last night? I know they mentioned Dekamori getting localized with a name change and a specific release date for Shinovi Versus!

Audie Bakerson

Well wouldn’t be the first time preorders alone led to another game in the series getting translated (DR2 for a recent example).

dark-kyon

well i believe what the high review scores of the game helping to nisa to do the green light of the sequel too soon,in this case even with the high preorder,when shinovi versus is out in the west if the review scores are bad(thing what i can see),this can affect the sales of a next senran kagura in vita.so xseed can wait to see if the game can get a decent score how burst got first.

Oh, Bon appétit.

We say this in France for each lunch.

I think in this particular case, it’s just a clever way of them having an excuse to squeeze ‘tit’ into the title, despite food being involved, lol.

http://fr.twitch.tv/Nhatalya Aleksandrina

You Sir speak the truth.

Sevyne

That’s exactly what my first thought was when I saw that title too.

If it was any other franchise, I could have overlooked it. It’s just too obvious here though, heh.

Shippoyasha

I wonder how many character song packs and DLCs will be there at launch.

pixxxelz

Not really into rhythm games but I’d buy just to support it

Guest

Awww yeah!

Splinter

If that’s true… XSEED will take away my money one more time.

Chestnut Bowl

What an insane year. This is one game I never expected to see localized, assuming it is indeed coming. Just how successful was the first SK game…?

chroma816

Yes. Yeeesssss.

And if we get all of the DLC, I’ll be super happy.

Somerandomperson

more games for the west! *goes back to play Gekishin Black Heart*

Elvick

Hope so.

Duo Maxwell

XSEED is killing my wallet, and I don’t even mind.

DukeMagus

Xseed never ceases to amaze me. Not my kind of game, but you gotta admire how bold they are

PrinceHeir

Thanks Xseed :D
